Crysis 3 now available in stores for 360 and PS3, online for PC

The latest entry in Crytek’s Crysis series is now available for 360, PC, and PS3. Crysis 3 brings back the Nanosuit, and the many powers its bestows, as well as protagonist Prophet. After donning the suit and moniker in Crysis 2, he must now make his way through a domed New York that is overrun by vegetation and patrolled by Cell operatives. Seven distinct areas, known as the 7 Wonders, must be explored as he continues his struggle to save mankind.

Multiplayer includes 12 maps, eight modes, and support for up to 12 players on console and 16 on PC. New to the series is Hunter mode, which has two players taking on the roles of cloaked hunters facing off against player-controlled Cell soldiers. The hunters sport the new Predator bow as well as a Nanosuit, and turn felled soldiers into hunters when they respawn. Another new feature is the New York Feed, a social feed that will keep players abreast of their friends’ activities as well as offer dynamic challenges.
